IRAS observations of radio-quiet and radio-loud quasars.
Abstract
Observations from 12 to 100 μm are presented of two radio-quiet and three radio-loud quasars. Over this wavelength range, all five have grossly similar continuum energy distributions. The continua of the radio-loud quasars are consistent with synchrotron radiation. There is an indication, however, of excess 100 μm emission in the two radio-quiet quasars.
